GARLAND SUBMITS HIS OPINION.
Attorney General Garland called on the
president this afternoon and returned to
him the interstate commerce bill, together
with his report thereon. The measure
will probably be considered at the regular
cabinet meeting tomorrow. The ten days
within which the president can legally act
on the bill Will expire Saturday evening.
1t is not likely that final action will be
taken before Thursday at the earliest. It
is impossible to obtain authentic infOrma-
ton as to the nature of the attorney gen.
erals opinion of the bill.
WILL BUILD GUN BOATS.
The naval construction subcommittee
has reached an agreement which will
doubtless receive the approval of the full
committee looking to an appropriation for
the construction of two 4OOO-ton cruisers
of the "Newark" type, five 7O0ton gun
boats, patterned of gun boats No. l, and
three sea-going torpedo boats. There is an
intention on the part of several members of
the committee when the construction bill is
reached, in the house to move an increase
OF the appropriation SO as to provide for

LOST THE BILL.
At the last session of congress the con-
ferees on the bill declaring forfeiture of
the lands granted to the Northern Pacific
Railroad company decided to report back
disagreement to their respective houses,
but up to this date no report has been
made. 1t is now learned that the confer
ence committees are not able to make their
reports owing to the fact that the bll
which when last seen was in the possession
of the house conferees, has been lost or
misplaced. Search for the bill has been
going on for a month. If it does not turn
up soon steps will be taken to get fresh
copy from the senate, to which the house
can re-attach its amendment.

WILD CELERY.
A Plan 40 Give eur Canvass
Backs Good Grub

The editor of the Virginia Re-
port advises the planting of wild
celery 80 that the canvass back
duck can have good fodder. Ii
says:
We advise our readers over near
Washoe Lake and on the Carson
Sink tn try the experiment. "What
is it that gives the canvass back
duck its special exquisite flavor and
market value?" Nothing but he
roots of the so-called wild celery
(fuiigula vallisneria) on which it
feeds aud which Il devour, with all
the gree1insss of the duck family
Ii you kill the canvass back IN any
part of the country where it does
not feed gu this root aud herb, ii is
no better than any ether kind OF
duck; white on the other hand,
those reo-head and black head
ducks, which likewise feed on wild
celery, are hardly diSt,nguishabie
from the canvass-back in flavor.
The diamond back terrapin, which
is one of the most toothsome dishes
in the known world. feeds on the
some root and hence derives its
gastronomic flavor aud authority
The great secret on which we have
dropped in Nevada, is to feed our
wild game on wild ce cry, thereby
imparting to their integument the
favor of the 'dlamond-back terra
pin"
It would not cost much to import
some of the wild celery shrub or
seed, and plant italong the Truckee
Carson or Walker River banks. 1t
would prove as great an attraction
as wild rice and moreover it would
supply feeding fields to the migra-
tory birds which would not only
feed the wanderers, but would to
tally alter the character of their
flesh.

WE QUIT.
The appeal" Turns Tail ON the
silver Knaereats.


The APPEAL is getting a trihe
weary OF shouting for the silver in
terests of Nevada The editor Of
the APPEAL is not a silver pro-
Queer, he IN snall and humble
way raises squasLes aud cahbages
but does not Gabble IN the silver
interests.
The other night he saw 81 bars
of silver bullion going down to San
Francisco on the cars. Ii looked
IA if these bars of bullion from the
Con. Virginia mine aud worth
$4,000 might be contribution
from the bonanza firm to the Car
son Mint. But not SO; they elided
past the Mint anu sped over the
mountains to the Bay.
About two years ago the APPEAL
editor attended silver convention,
and heard a number of long, winded
orators spout on the double stand
ard, the "single Standard hi"
and 'mono-metalism " etc, etc.
The whole State was reused over
the blows aimed at the silver in
dustry, and there was great deal
of noise and excitement, aud 1000
pamphlets were printed. They
talked on everything but the main
question.
A few months ago there was a
meeting Of Carson citizens to petI
ton the President to keep the
Mint open and save the State from
bankrupt
A few days ago the APPEAL
printed a letter from the Director
of the Miuts to Senator Stewart. in
which he said that be would coin
In the Carson Mint as soon as there
was enough silver on deposit.
The men most interested in the
silver question are the bonanza
firm of this State. They dig silver
out of the gr ,und and sell it by the
ounce, pound and ton.
1t Is said that the closing Of the
Mint gives silver black eye and
lowers its quotations In the markets
of the world. Now If the silver
producers or Nevada don't care
enough about their own business to
keep what they produce aud sell, at
high quotations in the markets
of the world, this little journal Is
not going to burst an artery shout
Ing for the silver product. If the
silver producers of this State are
short sighted enough to keep the
Carson Mint closeu aud silver de-
